U.S. Army and Pro Football Hall of Fame Announce Inaugural Award for Excellence Winner
Army and Pro Football Hall of Fame extend program for 2013-2014
Jan 04, 2013, 11:00 EST
SAN ANTONIO, Jan. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The U.S. Army and the Pro Football Hall of Fame today announced the winner of the inaugural 'Award for Excellence.' Nate Lowis, a high school junior from Sacred-Heart Griffin High School in Springfield, Ill., was named the first recipient of the award during a formal awards ceremony at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl. Lowis was one of ten finalists vying for the honor.
The program, which was open to all United States sophomore and junior high school athletes, focused on not only athletic achievement, but also excellence in academics and community service.
"The nominees for the Award for Excellence possess a unique set of strengths and adherence to a core set of values shared by Army Strong Soldiers," said Mark Davis, deputy assistant Secretary of the Army for Marketing and director of the Army Marketing and Research Group. "Nate is an outstanding scholar, athlete and citizen and we are proud that he is our inaugural recipient of this honor. We look forward to continuing our relationship with the Pro Football Hall of Fame, which allows us to celebrate the achievements of America's youth."
In addition to announcing this year's winner, the Army and the Pro Football Hall of Fame will extend the partnership and 'Award for Excellence' program into the 2013-14 year. Students from across the country are encouraged to submit their application and essays beginning March 1st, with a June 15 submission deadline.
"The Pro Football Hall of Fame is proud to continue its mission to educate and promote the excellence that comes with America's favorite game, football, and combine it with the U.S. Army's mission of excellence in school, community service and through athletics," said George Veras, President and CEO, Pro Football Hall of Fame Enterprises. "We are excited to continue our partnership with the U.S. Army and to recognize student-athletes across the country for their outstanding achievements and hard work."
For more information on the program, visit: www.goarmy.com/AAB or www.profootballhof.com/Army
In its day-to-day operation, the Pro Football Hall of Fame works very closely with all facets of the pro football family - the National Football League, the 32 NFL clubs, and other entities to ensure the overall success of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In turn, the Hall strives to serve as the best possible historical showplace and repository for the sport of pro football. The Hall of Fame is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit educational institution that focuses on education, promoting, preserving, and honoring the great individuals and moments that have shaped the sport's history.

(CNN) -- Sandra Bullock is one of the highest-profile actresses in Hollywood and also one of the world's most photographed moms. It's hard to pick up a tabloid that doesn't feature a photo of the Oscar-winner with her adopted 3-year-old son, Louis Bardot. And now Bullock is speaking out in support of a new law that increases penalties for paparazzi harassing the children of celebrities.
"We are fair game, I get it," Bullock told CNN at her handprint and footprint ceremony outside the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on Wednesday. "Children should be allowed to be children and not be sold. You're taking a picture of a child and selling it!"
California Gov. Jerry Brown on Tuesday signed the bill, which increases the penalties for intentional harassment of a child because of their parents' employment.
The effort gained momentum after actresses Halle Berry and Jennifer Garner testified before the California Assembly Judiciary Committee in August to support the bill. The pair opened up about the hellish conditions faced by their children as a result of aggressive paparazzi.
Bullock commends the two on their fight.
"I think it's brilliant," she explains."The girls worked so hard, the attorney worked so hard, and I think it's a good sign."
According to a release from the governor's office, the new law "increases the maximum jail time for harassment of a child or ward because of the person's employment from six months in the county jail to a year in the county jail."
It also imposes increasingly stiff fines: For a first violation, a fine not to exceed $10,000. For a second violation, it's $20,000. For a third violation, it's $30,000.
The "Gravity" star made a rare choice to bring young Louis with her to a media event, a decision Bullock is quick to defend.
"Today, I brought him out because this was a family day. It was the one exception that I make."
"And this way," she continued, "when he's 16 and he hates me, I can take him to this moment and say, 'Look, people said really nice things about your mother...' "
The current Vogue magazine cover star reveals her son becomes fearful for his own safety and that of his mom when going out.
"When you go to school, or you're at an airport, the reason he doesn't like this is because he's used to people running at him, and he thinks they're going to hurt mom or hurt him."
Bullock is thankful for the law and what it will mean as a mother and one of the Hollywood's biggest stars.
"This'll be great. This will allow children to be children. ... I'm so grateful."

George: "Double-dipped"? What are you talking about?
Timmy: You dipped the chip. You took a bite. And you dipped again.
George: So...?
Timmy: That's like putting your whole mouth right in the dip! From now on, when you take a chip, just take one dip and end it!
George: Well, I'm sorry, Timmy, but I don't dip that way.
(Best. Picture. Ever.)
Oh, how I love Seinfeld!
If you've ever wondered if, in fact, double-dipping is really such a party foul, you should read this article from the NY Times. You might be surprised.
That is all.

the maiden voyageYum
I developed my first product today! Hurrah, hurrah!
Clearly, I can't tell you all about it (lest I get canned), but I will say that it involves blueberries (oh, how I love the blueberry) and it is positively delicious. I envy the babies who'll get to eat this one. In fact, I'm sneaking some of it home with me.
What is this vaguely familiar feeling niggling at me?
Ah, yes, a sense of accomplishment and pride. I remember now.
That's nice.
january is fiber focus month, and you know what that means...Yum
Oh, how I love beans. I've never placed a bean into my mouth that I did not enjoy. [Disclaimer: This does not include retail green beans, as they cannot truly be considered beans.]
Unfortunately, I am not immune to the gastronomic side effects of beans.
It's true, there's no sense in denying it.
I want to take this opportunity to educate you on a few of the different varieties of beans (and there are many more). Some of these are completely new to me, and some are just downright beautiful. Yes, beans can be beautiful.
Here they are, in order of fiber content (per 1/2 cup) (you might learn a thing or two):
anasazi beans (12.0 g):
This attractive purple-red and white bean has a sweet, mild, full flavor and a mealy texture. Compared to other beans, it contains only 25% of the specific complex carbohydrates sometimes responsible for the gastric distress associated with dry beans. Yeah, I'll believe that when I see it.
navy beans (9.5 g):
Also known as the yankee bean, it's a smaller, denser, milder-tasting version of the great northern bean. These always bring to mind Adam Sandler's song Lunchlady Land. "Hoagies & grinders, hoagies & grinders. Navy beans, navy beans. Meatloaf sandwich. Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe..."
kidney beans (8.2 g):
Beware--red kidney beans contain a toxin called phytohaemagglutinin that causes severe gastric distress, including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Under-cooked beans can be more toxic than raw and it only takes 4 to 6 beans to bring on symptoms. Duly noted.
lentils (7.8 g):
Lentils are one of the oldest known cultivated crops. I like 'em because they're meaty, quick-cooking, and make a mean veggie burger.
pinto beans (7.7 g):
Medium in size, they lose their mottling when cooked, turning a uniform pinkish-brown with a delicious creamy texture that makes them ideal for refrying. Mmm...refried beans.
black beans (7.5 g )(a personal fave):
My source states that the low-fat high-fiber profile of black beans makes them relatively friendly to the digestive system. I'm here to tell you that that's a bald-faced lie.
lima beans (6.6 g):
Lima beans are large, creamy white, and disk-shaped with a buttery flavor and starchy texture. I like 'em big, thick, and juicy; those little ones are useless to me.
chickpeas (6.2 g):
Chickpeas have a mild yet hearty flavor and keep their unique round shape when cooked. In addition to being a good source of protein and calcium, they are especially high in iron. Hummus rules.
great northern beans (6.2 g):
The largest of the commonly available white beans, great northerns have a mild, delicate flavor that makes them perfect for baked bean recipes. I should probably eat more of these since I am now a resident of the great north...
soybeans (5.2 g):
Soybeans are higher in protein than any other legume and the only vegetable protein that is complete. The complex proteins in soybeans are hard to digest, which is why many of the traditional products derived from soybeans are fermented, a process that breaks down these proteins for easier digestion. I've had edamame, which are immature soybeans, and they're good. Real good.
adzuki beans (5.0 g):
A small, dark red bean that holds its color well when cooked, the adzuki is sweet and easier to digest than most other beans. I've never heard of it before, but I'd eat it.
appaloosa beans:
A hybrid bean from the American Southwest, its brownish-black and white markings resemble those of an Appaloosa pony. Their flavor is similar to the black bean, only more intense and earthy. That's a good-looking bean, and I need to try it immediately.
trout beans:
This heirloom bean is attributed to a man named Jacob Trout who ostensibly bred this bean in colonial Virginia (hooray!). An attractive bean with maroon markings on white, it's renowned for its baking qualities and rich, meaty texture. It's purdy.
lupini beans:
Technically a member of the pea family, these flat, coin-shaped, dull yellow seeds are second only to soybeans in plant protein content. They look fun, kinda like oyster crackers.
mung beans:
They can range in color from greenish-brown to yellow to black and have a delicate sweet flavor. They need no pre-soaking, cook quickly, and are easier to digest than most other beans because they contain very low levels of oligosaccharides, the substance in beans that causes flatulence. Again, I require proof. And I have to say, what an unenticing name for a food.
fava beans:
Favas are large oval beans, light brown in color, with a creamy texture and a strong earthy flavor. They can be eaten fresh as well as dried, with or without liver and a nice chianti.
calypso beans:
Similar in flavor but milder than the black bean, calypso beans are a hybrid with dramatic black and white coloring that resembles a yin yang symbol, complete with black dot. How cool is that? I need to hunt some of these down.
flageolet beans:
These small, pale green beans are actually immature kidney beans. And it's pronounced flah-JOH-lay.
So, beans I need to find and sample: anasazi, adzuki, appaloosa, trout, lupini, mung, fava, calypso, flageolet. Until I have done this, I can hardly call myself a bean connoisseur.
Lesson complete. Consider yourself educated.

Raindancer Steak ParlourYum
My boss invited me to join him, his wife, and his brother for dinner last night. My first thought was, "Oh Lordy, I hope this isn't a set-up."
[Sidenote: That makes me think of my dear grandma, who's endlessly trying to find me a husband, whether he's 60 or 10. Love her anyway.]
Turns out my boss was just being kind, as his brother is 55 and married. Whew.
We went to the Raindancer Steak Parlour ("Parlour," eh? How hoity-toity is that?) in Amsterdam, the nicest place in town as far as I know (and by nicest, I mean most expensive). Apparently, they're big on steak and fish, two sources of protein that don't really do it for me. I can be flexible though (contrary to popular belief, I'm not always a Goldilocks), and I felt confident that there would be something on the menu that I could devour.
Plus, you know, life isn't always all about food. Seriously, folks. This was clearly more about getting to know my boss better and being social. The nice meal was just an added bonus...
Anyway, my initial impression of the restaurant was not that it would serve expensive dishes. In fact, it wasn't very impressive at all--Applebee's has a better decor. But I reminded myself that one musn't judge a book by its cover.
We were seated promptly since we had reservations (which were completely unnecessary--there were only about 10 other tables occupied), and I checked out the menu. Cha-ching--it was indeed expensive. And almost entirely unappealing. Lots of fishies, lots of steaks, some veal (just can't do it), very little chicken, and no vegetarian. Boo.
I ended up picking an herb-roasted chicken salad, replete with sun-dried tomatoes (one of my favorite foods of all time), pine nuts, and roasted red peppers.
Anytime I see sun-dried tomatoes in a dish's description, that dish immediately moves to the top of my list of potentials. Unfortunately, I've found that the tart little slivers of love are often paired with mushrooms, which I abhor.
Not this time, hooray! It was a terrific salad, and I was pleased. I thought $11.50 was pretty steep, but what are you gonna do?
My boss got a petite sirloin and deemed it satisfactory. His wifey got a rack of ribs and said they were good. The brother got broiled scallops and never really remarked on them. So, all in all, there was clearly nothing to rave about.
Our waitress was nice enough, but we didn't see much of her. Is it normal for a dinner to stretch out for two hours? I didn't think so. I guess I really need to learn how to sit still for longer than an hour, especially when there's food involved...
Food: A
Atmosphere: C
Service: B
Final verdict: I'd only eat at the Raindancer Steak Parlour if someone else was paying.

studly chocolate breadYum
Yep, you read right—my bread is studly.
It was time to feed Ebenezer again (he's so demanding!), so I set out to find a fun and exciting sourdough recipe to test. Ideally, the end product would be worthy of TasteSpotting, but that wasn't my main goal.
Yeah, I'm lying. That was my main goal.
I found oodles of recipes, but finally decided on this one. After all, it's National Chocolate Cake Day, and this is kinda cake-ish...
Anyway, I had all the ingredients on hand:
Yes, I used regular pepper. Gasp, shudder, cringe. I was afraid that fresh-cracked would be too much, plus I hate to waste things. Even cheap-o boring pepper.
The very first step was to feed Ebie, as I did here. He was a hungry beast once again, but who wouldn't be after two weeks of fasting?
Next I had to rehydrate some cranberries, which I did by boiling some water in the microwave, pouring it over them, and letting them plump up for about 15 minutes:
In the meantime, I chopped up the luscious chocolate…
…and combined the dry ingredients in my big bowl:
That's only 3 ½ cups of flour, which is what the original recipe called for. I can understand when bread recipes go a little light with the flour amounts to allow for additions here and there, but come on! I ended up putting in about twice that! It wasn't even close! Ay-yi-yi.
Anyway, when the cranberries were satisfied, I kept their wonderfully-infused water and added more water to hit 1 ½ cups. This went into the dry ingredients, as did ol' Eb.
The original recipe commanded that the dough be kneaded (in a mixer) for 10 to 12 minutes. As we know, I currently do not have a mixer, much less a kneading hook, so I got quite a workout…
Poor, poor hand.
Finally, after much adding of flour and laborious stirring, I had a satisfactory dough:
I turned it out on the floured counter, kneaded it a bit more, and stretched it out. I dumped the cranberries on one end…
…and folded the dough over:
I stretched it again and added the chocolate…
…and kneaded and rolled and stretched and folded until everything was evenly distributed:
See the studs? Hence the name.
Hunks of chocolate. Mmm. Hunka hunka burnin' love...
Where was I? Ah, yes, my studly dough was now ready to rise, so I placed it in a greased bowl, rolled it around, covered it, and set it aside to grow.
Ebenezie didn't let me down:
After the dough had doubled (I ended up letting mine rest for about 6 hours), I gave it a good punch, split it in two, kneaded each half a bit, and placed them into greased loaf pans:
It was time to rise once again, so I went ahead and stuck them in the oven and left them alone for another 3 hours.
With my oven at 425 degrees, I baked the bread for about 40 minutes and let it cool on a rack:
Looks good from here.
This angle's not too shabby, either.
What does one eat on a piece of chocolate bread studded with cranberries and more chocolate, you ask? I had blueberry preserves, and it was deeeeeeeelightful:
Sigh. I don't have a lot of confidence in this one, folks. I guess I need to accept the fact that bread is just not photogenic. It had to be done, though--Ebenezer must be fed regularly or he'll kick the bucket.
But come on, TasteSpotting, give a girl a chance!!
Studly Chocolate Bread
1 c dried cranberries (I used orange-flavored craisins)
½ c water
1 ½ c Ebenezer
1 ½ c lukewarm cranberry water and water
5 c bread flour (probably more)
¾ c cocoa powder
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 c dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
Bring water to a boil, add cranberries, and leave to cool for about 15 minutes. Drain the cranberries, reserving the liquid. Add enough water to bring the volume up to 1 ½ cups.
Place Ebenezer, water, and dry ingredients into a bowl and stir to combine. Knead for 10 to 12 minutes, adding flour as needed, until the dough is smooth, silky, and elastic.
Add the drained cranberries and chocolate to the dough, and continue kneading until the cranberries are evenly distributed. This may take some hand kneading to complete.
Put the dough into an oiled bowl, and turn the dough to cover it. Cover and allow to rise in warm place until approximately doubled.
Punch down and turn out onto lightly floured work area. Gently pull and stretch the dough into two small loaves and place in sprayed loaf pans.
Cover and allow to rise until approximately doubled.
Preheat the oven to 425F. Bake the bread 40 to 45 minutes and cool on a rack.
Disclaimer: Do not eat immediately, as this may result in burnt fingers, tongue, or roof of the mouth.

Beautiful! I have wanted to try a Marfy pattern for a long time but most of the time my projects are a bit more closer to home, it is alot cheeper to sew when you can get a pattern on sale for $2 than $20 but it is still an idea I want to try. Was it difficult to work with?

Thank you….if I am honest I have a couple hundred patterns bought on sale for $ from the last six years and i've never used one that does not need altering in some way. Marfy definitely cost more but its almost like a custom pattern. Nothing needed changing, no alterations, or time wasted. If you can use any pattern without needing detailed instructions I would say go for it, they are amazing and you start to see just how real pattern making should be done……

Broncos complete season sweep of Panthers
THOMAS — The Blackfoot Broncos and the Snake River Panthers locked horns for the final time in 2012 as the two squads met in front of a packed house at Snake River High School with Blackfoot looking for the season sweep of the season while Snake River were looking to hold home court.
Alonzo Ramos poured in 20 points and McKye Watt added 16 as the Broncos completed the sweep with a convincing 57-40 victory in a game that many expected to be much closer.
"I think that the biggest key was the fact that we matched and then went above their physicality," Blackfoot head coach Dan Hale said. "It was a terrific Christmas present that's for sure."
Early on it looked as if Snake River were poised for the big win as they broke open a 10-10 first quarter tie with a 9-0 run to open second quarter play. Cole Rushton, who finished the evening with 12 points for the Panthers, hit the big shot in the run when he banked home a three pointer from the top of the circle for a 19-10 Panther lead with just over four minutes till the half.
The home irons went cold from then however and Blackfoot started heating up and as Alonzo Ramos drained a three point basket at the buzzer, Blackfoot had outscored the Panthers 16-3 for a 26-22 lead heading to the locker room.
"We just had lots and lots of missed shots," Snake River head coach Bob Coombs said. "We had good looks at the rim but we have to hit those easy shots. You have to hand it to Blackfoot though, they took it to us and we will need to learn from this and move on."
Third quarter action was all about McKye Watt as the junior drilled four three point baskets in the frame to help push the lead out to 43-29.
"It's nice to have a shooter," Coach Hale said. "Once we broke the game open the kids were able to relax. I also think that one of the keys in the second half was our defensive pressure and we rebounded better than the last time we played them."
Blackfoot enters the break at 3-5, 0-2 while Snake River is 3-3.
Blackfoot 10 16 17 14 - 57
Snake River 10 12 7 11 - 40
Blackfoot (57) - Colby Pearson 9, Alonzo Ramos 20, McKye Watt 16, Austin Campbell 2, Aaron Vail 5. FG: 17. 3-pointers (Alonzo Ramos 4, McKye Watt 4). FT: 15-18. Fouls: 18. Fouled out: none.
Snake River (40) - Adrian Castaneda 2, Jacoby Johnson 11, Cole Rushton 12, Brad Coombs 3, Mason Watt 3, Curtis Keller 4, Wyatt Wray 5. FG: 15. 3-pointers (Cole Rushton 1). FT: 9-13. Fouls: 18. Fouled out: Adrian Castaneda.

Quinn announces $1.4 billion in tollway improvements
For the second time in as many months, Governor Pat Quinn was back in the Northwest suburbs Friday talking tollway improvements.
But while February's announcement in Hoffman Estates was specifically about state funding for a full interchange at Barrington Road and the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway, Friday's appearance in Schaumburg covered the full $1.4 billion that will be invested in the Illinois Tollway this year.
It's the single biggest infrastructure project in the agency's history, Quinn said. Funding is being provided through a major toll increase that was instituted in 2012. The most commonly paid toll jumped 88 percent to 75 cents from 40 cents.
The news conference at Schaumburg's Renaissance Hotel and Convention Center was set against the backdrop of one particular beneficiary -- the Meacham Road bridge over I-90 that will see its first partial interchange built as part of the coming improvements.
The next exit to the west at Roselle Road also will have a full interchange completed by 2017.
Not only will the entire statewide project create 15,000 construction jobs, but the economic benefits of an up-to-date roadway system in the nation's transportation hub will be felt long after, Quinn said.
Richard McMahon, CEO of Sunstar Americas Inc., said the coming improvements were a key factor in his company's decision to remain in Illinois after outgrowing its 25-year-old North American headquarters in Chicago.
A new headquarters in Schaumburg near Roselle Road and I-90 is expected to welcome 400 employees next year, McMahon said.
"We are very, very happy to be here," McMahon told Quinn and the group of union construction workers gathered behind him. "What you do matters."
James Sweeney, president and business manager of International Union of Operating Engineers Local 150, spoke passionately about what the new work will mean both to his members as well as everyone else in the state.
Five years ago, one of the union's key tasks was organizing a food bank for out-of-work members and their families, Sweeney said.
"It was a great depression for the construction industry," he added.
But conversations began with the governor about the kind of work that could be done locally, doing more to rebuild and improve the tollway system than simply continuing to pave over the work of the "Greatest Generation" from more than 50 years ago.
"This is what roads are supposed to look like," Sweeney said of the tollway plan. "Politicians tell you what they want to do. Leaders tell you what they have to do, and Pat Quinn is a leader."

In that timeframe Polaris plans to close the Osceola plant, and move its production south of the border to Mexico. The move comes about as Polaris looks to increase production efficiency (i.e. lower production costs with cheaper labor), which will then allow the company to be more competitive with its products' positions in their respective marketplaces.

's Sunken City serves as a reminder of just how dangerous the site can be. But it's also reinvigorating a movement nike roshe size 4c tapJIpWDD
When city engineers visited the bluffs last month to investigate the landslide, they spotted "several unauthorized people... within the 'prohibited' Sunken City landslide area," and several more were seen hopping over a section of a fence designed to block visitors. They documented what they saw in a report released Tuesday.
That documented flow of trespassers lines up with what many San Pedro residents say is the problem with the fence: It doesn't work—so why not take it down?
In response to the report, Los Angeles City Councilmember Joe Buscaino, who represents the area, reaffirmed his support for safely opening part of the urban ruin to the public.
Buscaino says he's working with recreation and parks, the bureau of engineering, and a handful of other city departments "to create and adopt a plan to clean-up portions of Sunken City, making it a safer and legally accessible extension of Pt. Fermin Park ."
Doing so "would change the current character of the location," says the councilmember, and would "give permitted access to more of the public while making the area safer."
Sunken City was not always an urban ruin. The six-acre "sunken" site marks the spot where, in 1929, a bungalow community began to slowly slip into the sea—so slowly, in fact, that "all but two of the homes" were moved to a different location before the community fell into the water, says the
nike air force max area 72 ebay auction
Old tracks leftover from the Pacific Electric Red Cars and concrete from bygone roads and building foundations are still visible, fractured and covered in graffiti left by visitors over the decades.
Since the late 1980s, a fence has unsuccessfully kept out curious sightseers.
Noel Gould, chairperson of the Coastal San Pedro Neighborhood Council's coastline and parks committee, says that the area "is de facto open," and that there are always people there. Gould admits he used to go down there himself years ago.
"It's ludicrous to say [Sunken City] is closed off," says June Smith, a 50-year resident of San Pedro.

Recently I had a read of
nike air max 1 rose gold metallic vinyl
by Lukas Smith ( @lsmith ) about the use of the DELETE method when building RESTful services. I wanted to get my thoughts down on this. Mostly to help myself, but if it helps you determine a better approach, then great.
I'm nowhere near qualified enough to preach, so this is by no means a "you should do it this way / my way is correct post", just food for thought. Besides, there are probably more questions here than answers.
So, Lukas highlights an interesting point (
us8n nike free run 3 2014 herren schwarz/weiß schuhe kaufen
), about the correct status code to return upon the successful deletion of a resource, and whether that code should ever change for subsequent requests. In general debate is:
So first off let's try to determine what idempotence is in respect to HTTP and how it applied to REST services. According to RFC 2616 (section 9.1.2) :
"the side-effects of N > 0 identical requests is the same as for a single request"
So if you send a request with exactly the same input, the side-effects will be identical. But...
Initially I found the term "side-effects" threw me. It wasn't clear whether this side-effect needs to be considered for the server or the client. In respect to the DELETE method the initial request (which performs the deletion of a resource) will have completely different side effects to subsequent requests (that won't). Does this mean DELETE is NOT idempotent? Maybe. Maybe it means what it says, or maybe we're misunderstanding something.
If you were to look up the term idempotence you'll notice in other applications of the word it refers to the "resulting" effect of an operation. Given an input, the same output will always be returned. As a mathematical example: An operation of adding 10 (to any number) is idempotent. The result (per given input) will always be the same. So does idempotence mean identical results or identical operation? I honestly can't find a definitive distinction anywhere.
gray nike air max 2017
"it means that the modified state remains the same after the first call". So again, this has no bearing on the operational effect, just the end result. So let's extend our example:
This operation will always return the same result (per input), but it may randomly idle for 5 seconds, meaning the side effects are different. According to Wikipedia this operation
IS idempotent
. The state of $number will always be the same for every call. According to
nike roshe ld1000 qs size 8B0XV
this operation is NOT idempotent as the operational side effects can vary. I think it would also be correct to say that any operation that needs to check external state before it can determine a result is also not idempotent. Be it the current time, a file in a file system or a record in a database.

Senate Minority Leader McConnell Tells Reid/Leahy To Kill PIPA
from the ouch dept
Update: Here's McConnell's official statement:
"While we must combat the on-line theft of intellectual property, current proposals in Congress raise serious legal, policy and operational concerns. Rather than prematurely bringing the Protect IP Act to the Senate floor, we should first study and resolve the serious issues with this legislation. Considering this bill without first doing so could be counterproductive to achieving the shared goal of enacting appropriate and additional tools to combat the theft of intellectual property. I encourage the Senate Majority to reconsider its decision to proceed to this bill."Reading between the standard DC political lines... McConnell is making this partisan.

Two weeks ago I posed that question to the 15,000 readers who subscribe to our e-newsletter. It was wonderful to watch my in-box as many thoughtful responses came back.
It all started when Marketing Director MaryAnn Ortiz-Lieb came to me with a unique opportunity. One of her clients has proposed partnering with us to bring a notable parenting expert to the Valley to speak. We wanted to find out who, in an ideal world, that person should be.
As I reviewed the responses, I realized that the list of suggestions is in itself a tremendous resource for parents. So as we take the next steps — contacting these people to determine their availability and fees — I wanted to share our readers' "Top 10" list of parenting gurus, in alphabetical order. Five are listed today; five more will come tomorrow.
Naomi Aldort is a self-described "parenting guide," an internationally published writer and public speaker. Her book, Raising Our Children, Raising Ourselves: Transforming parent-child relationships from reaction and struggle to freedom, power and joy, promotes the idea that children need love and validation, not control and behavior modification. Her perspective is considered "attachment parenting friendly," according to her website, though she does not use the word directly because of "its multiple and contradictory meanings."
I watched the following video, where Aldort offers some insightful perspectives when a parent believes "my child doesn't listen to me."
James Dobson, Ph.D. founded Focus on the Family as a non-profit organization, established to strengthen Christian family values. What began with a radio program on a few stations in 1977 has grown to a network of more than 3,000. He gives advice on Christian marriages, families and parenting through the ministry of Family Talk radio.
Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish, authors of How to Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk, Siblings Without Rivalry and several other books. Their work, based on the philosophis of renowned child psychologist Haim Ginott, Ph.D., suggest ways of communicating that make a profound difference in relationships with children. (Both MaryAnn and I are huge fans of these books, which were widely referenced back when we were both taking parenting classes.)
Jim Fay and Foster W. Cline, M.D. developed the Parenting with Love and Logic approach from 75 years of combined experience working with and raising kids. Like their books, Love and Logic seminars provides simple, practical techniques to help parents have more fun and less stress while raising responsible kids of all ages.
One of our readers, who has children 8 and 10 years old, wrote to share the fact that she is reading the Parenting with Love and Logic book. "It has really changed the way we parent and everyone in the family is more respectful to one another," she write. "Our children are taking more responsibility and learning from their behaviors. [Fay and Cline] also have a website with an email newsletter that I receive weekly, which reinforces the book and reminds us how to parent. I would definitely go to a seminar led by these authors and I would tell my friends about it."
Here is a sample from one of Jim Fay's presentations:
Steven J. Hughes, PhD, LP, ABPdN, is an assistant professor of pediatrics and neurology at the University of Minnesota Medical School and maintains a private practice in St. Paul, where he specializes in the assessment of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and other learning and behavioral problems.
A parent himself, he chose Montessori education for his own family and is a frequent guest lecturer at the Montessori Training Center of Minnesota and a Montessori schools around Minnesota and Wisconsin. In his talks, Hughes describes how Maria Montessori's brain-based approach to education "provides an unparalleled foundation for the development of academic, social, and executive functions critical for advanced problem solving and lifetime success," according to his website goodatdoingthings.com. A book is coming out soon.
Tomorrow: Five more parenting experts our readers recommend.

Illustrative example to show differences between three statistical approaches comparing the effect of treatments on functional outcomes "truncated due to death." We consider the population of patients eligible for the ABC trial and for each patient, generate the potential outcome under control by mimicking characteristics of the control group from the ABC trial such that 62% of the patients receiving the control would experience death by 12 months, the mean cognition among survivors is 42, and based on the composite outcome, as described in the manuscript, 50% of the patients will survive past 72 days (25% of patients will survive to 12 months with cognition score >39). Assuming the monotonicity assumption holds, potential outcomes under intervention were derived based on the effect of the intervention on mortality and the functional outcome among always survivors (for a total of six scenarios). For each scenario, the true population value of the treatment effect defined by the survivors analysis, the SACE and composite endpoint approach are displayed
When the intervention has no effect on mortality (scenarios 1 and 2), there are no mortality benefiters, only always survivors (38%) and always diers (62%) (
outlet big discount Crocs Literide Flip from china cheap online cheap sale many kinds of G5OLxdWSS
). In this case, the SACE approach and survivors analysis produce the same results regardless of whether there is no effect (scenario 1) or a positive effect of the intervention on cognition (scenario 2). Further, when the intervention has no effect on mortality, the SACE can be estimated directly from trial data without making any additional assumptions. The composite endpoint approach identifies that there is no difference in the distribution of the potential composite outcomes in scenario 1 (rank statistic=0) and the shift in the distribution of cognition scores among always survivors in scenario 2 (rank statistic >0).
In scenarios 3 through 6, the intervention has a positive effect on mortality, which results in no change to the proportion of always survivors (38%) but creates a stratum of mortality benefiters (21%, table 3 ). When the intervention has a positive effect on mortality, the SACE approach and survivors analysis will not necessarily provide the same results; whether or not these approaches are equivalent depends on characteristics of the mortality benefiters. In scenarios 3 and 4, the effect of the intervention is to promote survival in more robust patients with high cognition such that the 12 month cognition scores among the always survivors and mortality benefiters under intervention have the same distribution. In these scenarios, the survivors analysis and the SACE provide the same results ( table 3 ). Alternatively, in scenarios 5 and 6, the effect of the intervention is to sustain less healthy individuals, creating a heterogeneous group of survivors (hearty always survivors and frail mortality benefiters). In these scenarios, the survivors analysis underestimates the SACE regardless of whether or not the intervention improves cognition among always survivors (eg, scenario 5: survivors analysis −7 v SACE 0) and use of the survivors analysis could lead to erroneous conclusions about the efficacy of the intervention on cognition. In scenarios 3 through 6, the composite endpoint approach identifies the shift in the distribution driven by the effect of the intervention on mortality and, in scenarios 4 and 6, on cognition.
In the newest study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine in May, more than 6,000 Italians at high risk for cardiovascular disease took 1,000 milligrams of omega-3 supplements a day. After five years, they did no better than a placebo group in terms of cardiovascular death rates or hospital admissions. This was true even of people with low baseline dietary intakes of omega-3s and those not taking statins.
Critics have raised questions about some of the newer studies, saying they were not large enough to detect benefits, didn't last long enough or used omega-3 doses that were too low. Others have criticized how the studies included in the meta-analyses were selected. Had certain other studies been included, the critics say, the overall results would have been more positive. Still, benefits that are so hard to spot are likely to be quite small.
The most salient point may be that in the studies from recent years, far more participants at elevated cardiovascular risk were taking "state-of-the-art" medication, such as statins and blood pressure drugs, compared to early studies. That helps explain the apparent lack of effect of the supplements. Even if omega-3s provide benefits, these would be hard to detect against the backdrop of the much larger benefits of these drugs. That could also make the supplements all the more unnecessary. (The same thing is seen in studies of low-dose aspirin, the benefits of which appear much smaller than previously estimated, now that so many high-risk people are taking statins.)
All seafood has something good to offer. But sardines (a name given to many small fishes in the herring family) are a top choice across the board.
Bottom line: The proposed cardiovascular benefits of fish oil supplements now seem uncertain. Some major studies are underway and may help clarify matters. In any case, your best bet is to get your omega-3s from two or three servings of fatty fish a week. The AHA continues to advise people with heart disease or high triglycerides to consider taking the supplements, after consulting their doctors. That's still good advice if you don't eat fish, especially since some of the other proposed benefits of omega-3s may still pan out. The supplements have few, if any, serious adverse effects—unless, that is, they lead you to think you can eat an unhealthy diet or can avoid taking the statins or other drugs you may need.Bottom line:

CHICAGO – Watch the narrative on the Draft begin to change, one general manager predicted.
Watch some front offices, in other words, suddenly talk up the Draft that for months has been universally regarded as weak, in an attempt to push more of a positive vibe for picks heading toward June 27. Part will be making the most of a bad situation, part simply focusing on the positives that do exist rather than continuing to lament the lack of star power, lack of depth and the lack of healthy top prospects. Or as one veteran executive put it rhetorically:
"Would you want a top pick this year?"
All of which makes the pre-Draft camp that opens here today and moves to the gym Thursday and Friday particularly intriguing, because of the greater chance than normal for dramatic shifts in stock. The swooning of past years, at least over a single prospect — like Anthony Davis last year — being as close to a sure thing in an otherwise-understated draft does not exist. A good showing at workouts at a private facility, along with individual interviews with teams, though, could mean a significant bump.
As always, many players projected for the lottery (and in some cases, with a chance for the top 12 or 14) will skip the basketball portion of this NBA job fair rather than risk hurting their stock. Most of those prospects will show for the interviews and the physicals, leave and choose spots for individual workouts after the lottery order is set May 21.
The twist this time is that three players in the top 10 in the latest NBA.com rankings won't be able to take complete physicals either because of injuries that will also keep them out of tryouts leading to the Draft and Summer League after that: Kentucky power forward Nerlens Noel (No. 2), UNLV power forward Anthony Bennett (3) and Maryland center Alex Len (9).
Sixty-three players are on the latest (so-called) participant list for the largest annual gathering of team representatives, from top executives to scouts to coaches and medical staffs, and prospects, to be followed in the coming weeks by large workouts hosted by the Nets and Timberwolves. The primary event for international prospects, the adidas Eurocamp, will be June 8-10 in Treviso, Italy.

Some All of the most powerful experiences delusions that I have had with God "god" since that day have taken place entirely in my heart imagination.

Quote from: JWBake1982 on February 20, 2011, 08:13:18 AMTestimony of Mathias Colwell:It was the one sober night I had had that month, ...That is what happens to an alcoholic who is running out of booze. You want to hear more about this kind of experience, go to the next AA meeting.

Religions need books because they don't have gods.
Funny how often gods, angels, demons, ghosts, and aliens all show up when people are IN BED, ain't it?
It was the party event of my life. I was drunk every day for weeks straight.
How do alcohol related seizures occur? 1. Alcohol withdrawal – When a chronic drinker or alcoholic stops drinking. These mostly occur within the first 36 hours of stopping drinking.
Hallucinations affect about 25% of people undergoing major alcohol withdrawal.Seizures occur in up to 25% of people withdrawing from alcohol.
Don't kangaroos skip along the surface of the water?
Testimony of Mathias Colwell:
I was raised in an amazing family, with loving parents and a great sibling. I was raised outside the church. I believe that I went to an Easter service only one time with my grandparents when I was around three years old, and that summed up my experience with faith. Needless to say God was not forefront in my mind.
As I got older I decided that I was an atheist.
I adopted the attitude that it was somehow my job to disprove God, and ridicule as many Christians as possible for their faith. I was evangelically atheist some might say, and I certainly behaved so within the circle of friends that I had in school.
I, of course, sought to do what I always did, which was proving me right and him wrong. I felt like I succeeded magnificently at this, yet all the while little seeds of truth were creeping into my heart and head.
One night after a particularly long and truthful conversation I told him a niggling truth that I had not fully realized about myself until the moment it came out of my mouth. I told him that I wanted to believe in God, but that I felt like I couldn't because I was too skeptical, I needed to see God to believe in God.
The next morning my roommate had left the room early, but he had written down a prayer for me. That prayer told me that if I really wanted to believe, then all I had to do was pray to Jesus, pray to God for Him to reveal himself to me and if I meant it with all my heart, then it would happen. Well I saw the value in the prayer, but wasn't yet ready to take that big of a step. I shelved the prayer for about six months until one balmy night in Spain.
It was the party event of my life. I was drunk every day for weeks straight. I didn't sleep the night through for a whole month, instead opting to take two extended naps daily
It was the one sober night I had had that month, and I went to sleep with the odd sensation that the day was somehow out of place in comparison to its predecessors.
I woke in the middle of the night and felt the distinct need to know the truth of life. Some things are hard to describe, but it was as if all my life had been unimportant, and all that mattered in that one moment was whether or not God was real. I just had to know the truth.
I remembered the prayer given me by my roommate, and began to pray in earnest. I prayed with a desperation with which I don't think I have ever prayed since. I was consumed with need to know if Jesus was real, and if he was God.
I don't know how long I prayed for, but after a time, an indescribably bright light shone down through my ceiling upon me,
and all of a sudden it felt like there was weight in the air around me. It was hard to breathe during this radical encounter with God.
I had prayed and He showed up in a forceful manner to quell any doubts that I had as to His existence. I remember panting in the bathroom mirror after it was over, wondering at what I had just experienced. For days all I could pray were thanks to God for Him showing me the truth.
These moments aren't always externally visible like my encounter in Spain.
Some of the most powerful experiences that I have had with God since that day have taken place entirely in my heart.
I now know God on a personal level.
I don´t think we as atheists should be mean and narrow-minded and lower ourselves to name-calling and ridicule. Obviously, this guy had a significant "spiritual experience" that converted him. There are many stories like that, and I do think it would be better to admit that such experiences are genuine and try to explain what exactly they are and their source.

35 weeks. It seems almost impossible that this much time has gone by since I first saw that pink plus sign on a white plastic stick. Holiday decorations are already in store windows; by Christmas I could have a weeks-old infant cradled in my arms. Sometimes I look back and think "How did I get here? And how did it happen so fast?"
Along with my rapidly approaching due date, there's another date permanently engraved on my mind. A day on the calendar that was supposed to mark the same kind of joy for one of my dearest friends that my own due date promises for me. But that date is empty now, a blank spot where there used to be a big red exclamation point. Because I am the lucky one, the one who gets to keep her miracle. And my friend—an amazing woman, a phenomenal mother—is grieving not one, but two pregnancies she's lost in the same 35 weeks I've been happily, uneventfully pregnant.
It's at her recommendation—and with her blessing—that I write this very difficult post. Miscarriage is a very common, very real part of many women's journeys toward motherhood. I'm particularly inspired by Project Pregnancy blogger Lexi Walters Wright, whose beautifully written, brave posts remind me how incredibly fortunate I am—how fortunate every mom is—to have a healthy child growing up before my eyes, and even luckier to have rolled the dice and conceived a second time. But remembering how lucky I am is not enough to provide support to my friend, to help her through her grief without being a living, breathing reminder of her pain. What do you say when you desperately want to ease a friend's pain—but can only make things worse?
We met when our babies were just a few months old, and it was instant friend karma. Our daughters are less than two weeks apart, and we've tackled every challenge of new motherhood together, from breastfeeding to pureeing broccoli to those first trips down the big kid slide. We made stay-at-home mommyhood into an adventure, with coffee playdates, music classes and field trips to the aquarium. She has parented my daughter almost as much as I have; she is one of the reasons my long months with J out of town have been bearable.
Around the same time, we decided it was time for #2. My friend had lost a pregnancy before her daughter C was born, and was considerably more cautious—and anxious—about the conception process than I was. Still, we bought ovulation sticks together, peed on pregnancy tests together, and looked at each other wide-eyed with shock and joy when we realized we'd both hit the jackpot—and were expecting our #2s just two days apart.
I had complications early in this pregnancy I hadn't experienced with E. Bleeding started around 6 weeks, and I would sit in the bathroom, terrified and alone, wondering what was happening. She was my sounding board, my reassuring voice. When she also started first trimester bleeding, I blithely assured her everything would be fine. Wasn't she just being overly neurotic because she'd had a miscarriage before C? If she was allowed to reassure me, I was allowed to poo-poo her fears too. Or so I thought.
Just before our 12-week milestones, my friend's ultrasound showed no heartbeat. In an email more concerned with my feelings than her own, she broke the news, letting me know she and her husband were drowning their tears in sake and sushi, and were focused on being grateful for the gorgeous, smart toddler they had at home. They were optimistic about trying again. Typically brave, typically cheerful. Heartbreakingly honest.
I cried for hours. Why her? Why not me? Suddenly, irrevocably, my joy and her pain were inextricably woven. And there was nothing I could say, no help or soothing words I could offer her, that could excuse the fact that I was still pregnant and she was not. I desperately wanted to trade places. At least if it were my pain, I could deal with it, be in control of it. But to watch someone so close to me suffer and not be able to a single thing to help—it was intolerable.
Selfishly, I was grieving a little bit for me, too. I wanted to take this journey with one of my dearest friends. Everything was supposed to work out perfectly. I'd envisioned joint baby showers and shuffling down the hospital hallway with my IV pole to have the world's first post-partum slumber party—just her, me, and our newborns. Our #2s should have had birthday parties together, gone to the DMV together to get their driver's licenses. All those silly, selfish dreams were shattered. I wanted to be unequivocally elated and excited about the new life inside me. Instead I felt sad, lost, and so, so guilty.
My friend is one of the strongest and bravest people I know. But no amount of bravery can take away her pain, and I hate that my own healthy pregnancy is a constant reminder of what she should have had—twice, now, since I conceived #2. Our conversations have become an elaborate dance, with her asking me about the pregnancy to prove she's OK with it, and me trying everything to avoid the topic entirely so as not to cause her any more sorrow. If I could make my growing belly disappear in her presence, I would. I do my best to pretend there's nothing more important going on in my life than preschool and potty training, because those subjects are things we can still share. But despite our best efforts, the chasm between us grows ever wider. It's the exact distance between the baby that is, and the baby that is no longer.
Is there ever a right thing to say to a friend or loved one that has suffered this kind of loss? Can women who haven't had fertility problems ever say the right thing to a woman who has? Even with the best of intentions, every word out of my mouth is potentially the most wrong thing I could say. I can't understand what it feels like. I can't make any of it better. And what I am doing—growing bigger and more pregnant by the minute—is, in some ways, the worst thing of all.
I know how genuinely happy my friend is for me, and how much she hates that I feel guilty when I should be celebrating this upcoming new life. I believe with my whole heart that she will have another child, one as healthy and precocious and absolutely perfect as her sweet daughter C. She is an incredible friend, a loving wife, an amazing mother. She doesn't deserve the sorrow she's been dealt (who does?) but she'll triumph anyway, because that's who she is. She inspires me every day.
And so do all the other women who have struggled with the pain and loss of infertility and miscarriage. To all of you out there who have suffered like my sweet friend: Is there anything us "lucky ones" can do, or say, to support you the way we so desperately want to? Or at the very least, minimize the damage our happily pregnant selves can inflict on still-raw wounds? Nothing can take away the pain of loss, and in many ways that chasm will always exist. But I'd love to hear advice on what to do, what not to say, and how to bridge the gap that inevitably grows between women whose paths have turned away from each other.

Coordinating a Distributed Planning System
Distributed SIPE (DSIPE) is a distributed planning system that provides decision support to human planners in a collaborative planning environment. The key contributions of our research on DSIPE are (1) constraint-based, consistent local views of the global plan that give each planner a view of how other planners' subplans relate to their local planning decisions; (2) methods for automatically identifying and sharing potentially relevant information among distributed planning agents; and (3) techniques for merging subplans that leverage the shared subplan structure to generate a complete, final plan. DSIPE is a fully implemented system and has been demonstrated to end users in the maritime (United States Navy and United States Marine Corps) planning community.

"the Yii Book" Status
Posted 13 November 2012 - 10:49 PM
For those of you that don't know, I'm writing and self-publishing a book on the Yii framework which I've cleverly titled "The Yii Book". I'm a marketing wiz. I'm selling the book in electronic formats as I write it. The URL for the book is http://yii.larryullman.com.
On October 30th, I released version 0.2 of the book, which includes the Introduction and Part 1 (four chapters). See the table of contents for complete details. Qiang and Alex have graciously offered to act as technical reviewers.
I'm currently working on the next update, which should be the subsequent three chapters. I'm hoping to have that posted next week. People that have already bought the book can get the new update for free, or you can buy the book at any time.
I'll continue to post updates here as I have them. Many questions you may have are probably answered on the FAQ page.
This forum has been created specifically for issues related to this book. Although I do run my own support forums (and you are free to use them, too), this seems like the most logical place for questions and comments, as it's the home of the Yii community.
Best wishes and thanks again,

Added Chapter 5, "Working with Models," (approximately 34 pages).
Fixed all the errors found in release 0.2.
Increased the font size and the margins for the PDF.
The ePub version now works in iBooks 3 and Adobe Digital Editions (Windows).
115 pages total as a PDF.

Just so you know, I'm waiting to hear back from the tech editors on Chapters 11 & 12, almost 80 pages total. Once I get their feedback, I'll post another update. In the meantime, I'm currently re-reading and updating the whole book to this point, cleaning it up, and adding some better formatting. I'll also update the downloadable code for the entire book to this point.

Thanks so much for your books!
I just completed your Advanced PHP course over on BostonPHP - now and finally I can get back on track with your Yii Book that I purchased when you first released last year 2012.
I just logged into my yii.larryullman.com "The Yii Book" account and downloaded latest version....Wow, I didn't realize you already have over 300 pages!
Thanks so much for this - we all deeply appreciate you and the Yii Team!!
Posted 20 March 2013 - 03:21 PM
Yes, 300 pages now. I expected the final version to be in the 500-600 page range, so I'm on target there.
My thanks to the Yii team, too! Without them, I'd have nothing to write about and nothing to make developing Web sites faster and easier. Well, nothing as good anyway...

When Spanish radio station Marca called up Lorenzo on Tuesday to celebrate the Fiat-Yamaha rider's birthday, they reminded Spanish rider that he shares his special day with another, slightly less famous, celebrity: porn star Rocco Siffredi.

Seeking renewal
With renewal of a contract with an international realtor pending, Wapakoneta Area Economic Development Council (WAEDC) members discussed ways they would improve the deal.
WAEDC Executive Director Greg Myers said he believes renewing the contract, which came up for review this May as it creeps toward its one year anniversary, would be beneficial for Wapakoneta as city administrators continue to seek investment into the 471-acre Job Ready Site certified manufacturing site.
"We have a world class industrial property where $7 million has been invested in it through the years by the city of Wapakoneta and the state of Ohio and I think we need world class real estate developers and advisers to make sure we get the word out and that every industrial company looking for a project site will know about it," Myers said after the meeting. "We could spend a ton of money to market and advertise it ourselves or we could plug into the world's largest real estate company — I feel that is far more cost effective."
Mayor Rodney Metz said he feels Wapakoneta City Council members, who have the ultimate decision on the renewal, should approve the deal with some modifications.
"I think at this stage of the game we need to continue our relationship with the firm and I would advise councilors that we need to proceed with renewing the contract," Metz told the Wapakoneta Daily News. "I do believe we should be able to discuss the price and we should have a listing of what services they are providing for the money we are paying.
"I don't look at this as a waste of money since the monthly fee is deducted from their commission when the land is sold," he said. "We also are getting a lot of services from them — I just think we need to know what they can do for us and we need to let them know what services we want from them."
Councilor-at-large Wilbur Wells explained the fee is paid from the various Enterprise Funds — electric, water, sanitary and stormwater. No money from the city's General Fund is used.
The city of Wapakoneta currently pays $3,500 per month, or $42,000 per year, for CB Richard Ellis to market and to sell the site. The amount paid for services is to be deducted from their 10 percent commission is any land is sold.
During Wednesday's WAEDC meeting, WAEDC member Teri Hirschfeld reviewed the deal with CB Richard Ellis, a company with 150 offices throughout the world, with members during Wednesday's meeting and suggested the WAEDC gain a better understanding of their work but to "let the machine work for us."
She said the board may want to know more about the components of the machine that is working for the city and WAEDC members would really like a better line of communication with CB Richard Ellis.
One of those areas is, Hirschfeld said, for CB Richard Ellis to update them on the progress their Columbus office is making as Gov. John Kasich shifts responsibility from the Ohio Department of Development to his Jobs-Ohio program.
"I would like a better sense of what CB Richard Ellis is doing in Columbus because they are extremely involved in the structural changes occurring in Columbus," Hirschfeld said.
She noted their involvement in Columbus could sweep industrial projects in Wapakoneta's direction.
She said CB Richard Ellis, which did $7 billion in deals last year, could provide a list of projects they sold in the past year so WAEDC members have a sense of the fields of interests taking hold throughout the United States and the world.
Myers said WAEDC members also want the ability to make a sales pitch to CB Richard Ellis developers in foreign offices to let them know what Wapakoneta can offer so they can pass the word onto corporate officials seeking to develop a new plant or company site.
"We would like to be able to engage those specific CB Richard Ellis staffers so we can let them know what we have to offer here in Wapakoneta and we also are reaching out to their Atlanta office, which deals with state incentives, and talk with them," Myers said. "We are trying to identify specific resources and to talk with them so we are plugged in with those."

Adele Covers 'British Vogue' October 2011
Adele graces the cover of British Vogue's October issue.
Here's what the 23-year-old English singer had to share with the mag:
On her pre-show ritual: "I puke quite a lot before going on stage. Though never actually on stage. But then, I s— myself before everything … the bigger the freak-out, the more I enjoy the show!"
On the entertainment industry's obsession with weight: "I've seen people where it rules their lives, who want to be thinner or have bigger boobs, and how it wears them down. And I don't want that in my life. I have insecurities, of course, but I don't hang out with anyone who points them out to me."
On being single: "I do get massively distracted when I've got someone in my life, which I can't afford to do right now. Besides, no one treats me as well as I do."
On preferring sons over daughters: "I've always got on better with boys. Most of my friends are boys. Like, if I ever have children, I want five boys. Boys love their mothers whereas girls can be so mean to each other."
